Gabriel Morrissette

Gabriel Morrissette, born September 26, 1959, in Montreal, Quebec, is a Canadian illustrator, animator, and comic book artist whose career spanned from 1985 to 2018. He is best known for his work on DC Comics titles such as *Ragman: Cry of the Dead* and *Checkmate*, as well as contributions to *Deathstroke, the Terminator* and *Doc Savage*. Morrissette’s path into comics began in the mid-1980s, where he quickly established himself as a versatile artist, often handling pencils, inks, and colors. His style is characterized by clean, dynamic linework and a keen sense of anatomy, which served the action-oriented stories he frequently illustrated. Among his notable collaborations was with writer Mike W. Barr on the *Northguard* series, including *The ManDes Conclusion*, and he also worked on the quirky superhero title *Angloman*. Morrissette’s later career saw a shift toward animation, though he continued to contribute to comics sporadically. His legacy lies in his steady, professional contributions to both Canadian and American comics, particularly in the 1990s, when he helped define the visual tone of several DC series. While specific major awards are not recorded, his body of work remains respected among fans of the era.
